I know, I really wish there was one for sale. The throat is almost the same size as their stand alone one (the smaller one, not the big one). Only diff I can see is the stationary ones have a bigger motor. It has given me the cleanest, quickest cut of any cutting method I have used so far...

Anyone know of a stand for the HF portable bandsaw Item#47840? http://www.harborfreight.com/portable-variable-speed-bandsaw-47840.html I'm looking for this kind of stand that has the saw naturally drop down on the piece, and also holds piece for miter cuts. fwiw here someone did a homemade...

Went through the whole thread. This looks really promising. 3 things: 1) jaw fatigue? sometimes I have to do a fair amount of grinding, fitting, or whatever. How long have you held the visor open? Anyone else have experience? 2) glass clarity. Everyone is saying the expensive ones are very...

Anyone tried this technique? <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/5bos4lfOA3k" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

The casters for the dollies rated at 1000lbs (250lb/caster) look cheap & weak up against some Colson casters that are rated for less. I think the Colson casters have a sizeable safety factor whereas the HF ones probably are right on 1. Maybe. Hopefully. That put some proper fear in me. Just...

Hi Cobbler. Good to see someone local here. I would normally think that too, but so far doesn't seem to be the case. Just not adding up.

Ah, ok. 'Sections' then. For my 9'W x 7'H doors, that's 4 sections/door. That's what I was thinking. track, torsion spring & assembly, opener are already in place. Got new rollers. Just want better panels (err, sections). Just so long as they are not very scratch & denty. How bad are the...

Was just fixing up my garage door -- Hardware and door opener are fine. Want the insulation mostly (wood now) . Low maintenance clean look is bonus. The panels are so basic; finished sheet steel bent to shape with styrofoam in them. Must be somewhere you can get them alone for less...

Yep. It's cool for the aesthetics. It does look nice Wonder about pros and cons with vertical vs horizontal fold.

I got this multi-ladder coupon email EDIT: coupon pic not rendering right. Here it is on HF site...

oh hay, who wants to try this guy out? 2-man chain saw http://buffalo.craigslist.org/atq/4562168156.html

Never heard of the brand 'Ireland', any good? $85 http://buffalo.craigslist.org/tls/4545593631.html OR this $65 http://buffalo.craigslist.org/tls/4529591622.html

I think it will. Probably longer. There's nothing in the manual about duty cycle. The only reason I didn't let it run non-stop was because the pool water was dirty and the pump could have clogged. I went 8 hours at a time with no issue.

Water Pump #65836 http://www.harborfreight.com/portable-utility-pump-65836.html PASS I call it the mighty-mite. Just finished pumping out about 3/4 of my 28,000 gallon pool. I did it in bursts over a while but I saw no reason I couldn't have had it go 24/7 in one shot. I think the heat at...

Apparently NEW HVLP spray gun...
